Bill: I have an Ontario rat 3 and the handle is a little small I feel, but the knife overall is nice and feels good to me IF I place my index finger in the choil. Otherwise the handle seems a little small and I have medium hands. i hope that helps you. That is what swayed me to the -4, a little larger grip. I have med sized hands, and the -3 was just a little too small for me

don't have a DM Bill, but the handle is shorter than the one on the S5. I have heard good reviews on their SERE blade.

The ESEE-5, their SERE knife, is literally a sharpened prybar. Very tough knife, possibly the next ESEE that I get.

I will try to handle both and see what I think For EDC, the -3 or the HEST will probably be the way to go. Similiar size, but the HEST is a little thicker blade and has some extras like a bottle opener built into the blade.

It feels really good in my hand, the extra little bit of heft makes it feel much more substantial without being a bigger knife.

I might have to see if I can find one locally to look at.
